According to some other iPhone leaks, the braided lightning cable might also have 8 silver contacts. These contacts will be made by using a rhodium-plated ruthenium process which is hard-wearing against corrosion. The lightning braids might contain grey and white filaments mixed in a 2+2 interlaced manner, hence making it wear-resistant.

According to iPhone leaks, the cable might measure 1.05 meters (3 feet 5.3 inches) end to end. The diameter of the wire might be 3.04 millimetres.
